Student Devices

Students are provided with a device and charger, which they are responsible for maintaining and securing. Here are some guidelines for caring for devices:

• Take measures to prevent scratches on the screen of the assigned device.

• Ensure that food and beverages are kept away from the assigned device to prevent any damage.

• Refrain from marking, drawing, writing, or placing unapproved stickers on the device or its case.

• Understand that any attempt to disassemble or repair any part of the assigned device is not permitted.

• In the event of damage, including but not limited to scratches, cracks, or dents, promptly report the damage to the school administration within 24 hours.

• If the assigned device is stolen or vandalized, file a police report and promptly notify the school administration within 24 hours.

To receive a device, students and parents/guardians are required to sign the Student Technology Agreement Form. The fee structure is found in the chart below. Students and parents/guardians are responsible for the cost of repairing devices that have been damaged, lost, or stolen while in their possession. 

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education believes that participation in the 1:1 device program promotes positive benefits for students and families and does not want to place any undue burdens on parents/guardians who cannot afford to pay the associated fee for loss or damage.
